Sky Diving Parachute Failure Accidents Are Not Usually Caused By Jumper Error But Rather A Defective Or Poorly Maintained Chute.

Here at the nationally known Beasley Law Firm, our
experienced parachute accident lawyers are all too familiar with the product defects or malfunctions that can
occur with parachutes at no fault of the skydiver. Our Firm represented
the Estate of Jim O'Brien, the channel 6 newscaster, after he fell
to his death when his parachute failed to protect him due to a product defect.

Over the weekend, David Winoker, a prominent New York Real Estate Executive,
fell to his death after his parachute malfunctioned while he was jumping.
The skydiving accident also claimed the life of an experienced flight
instructor. Winoker and Chulsky jumped in Plattekill NY, about 70 miles
north of New York City, in a dive organized by Skydive. The outing was
organized to celebrate a friend's 50th birthday.

According to news sources, the overly cautious 49 year-old David Winoker
decided to sky dive to celebrate his friend's 50th birthday. His wife even encouraged David to sky dive. Sadly, the parachute
did not function the way it was supposed to and caused his untimely death.

It is extremely sad that a young man fell to his death due to a parachute
malfunction, but to me, what is even sadder is that his wife is placing
the blame on herself because she encouraged David to skydive. At David's
funeral on Sunday, his wife Jill told mourners, “He never said no
to me. Maybe this time, he should have said no.” No person should
carry any guilt if they supported or encouraged a person to sky dive.
The only person or persons that should feel guilty are the parachute manufacturer
or the company that maintained the chute that caused someone's death.
Here at the Beasley Law Firm, we are experienced parachute failure attorneys
that successfully hold the correct person or company accountable for any
parachute malfunction.

Jim Beasley, Jr. is not only an experienced physician and attorney, but
also a nationally known licensed flight pilot who has been flying planes
solo since he was 16 years old. One of the first things he learned before
flying was the importance of a properly maintained and functional parachute.
Jim's passion and experience with airplanes and parachutes made him a
leader in the field of aviation and parachute failure negligence. Jim has the real working knowledge of how a parachute should
be packed, functions and maintained. His unique aviation expertise also
played a major role in obtaining the ONLY successful lawsuit for victims
of the 9/11 attacks.
